Hiking

Theme path: Monte Piano - Museum of the 1st World War

The hiking trail gives an interesting insight into the history of the Dolomites.
from center
The Open Air Museum on the Monte Piano of the First World War  is one of the most important witness of the battles between Austria and Italy in the years 1915-1917. It consists of trench warfares, tunnels and emplacements.

On June 7, 1915, Monte Piana was taken by Austrian soldiers and fortified despite Italian resistance. A little later, the Italians managed to take its southern side. Since the border between Italy and the Habsburg Monarchy of Austria-Hungary ran right through Monte Piana, both sides wanted to hold onto this strategically important mountain. A bloody trench warfare lasting two years followed, which was ultimately not to bring about any decisive change.

The theme path starts at the Rifugio Bosi hut (accessible with the shuttle-service or by hiking from the Genzianella restaurant in Misurina). From the hut the trail no. 122 leads slightly uphill, but not difficult, to the summit of the Monte Piano.
